"The hotel is located very close to the lake and ferry stop is just 1 min walk from the hotel. There is about 20 min walk via boardwalk to the center of Stressa. Hotel offers very good breakfast with an excellent service. Rooms are small and not all face the lake. Staff was professional. Nights were quiet and beds were comfortable. Bathrooms were spacious with soap and shampoo provided. The place fit me well since I was mostly interested in visiting the islands. Also they have private parking which is a big plus."
